Just a few years ago, Gigi Goldman was a stay-at-home mom and like so many busy moms, Gigi rarely had time to devote to any kind of beauty routine so she kept it simple and natural. The coconut oil that she used in the kitchen was her secret go-to multi-tasker. The more she used coconut oil, the more she realized that its beauty benefits were simply too good to ignore. 

Gigi brought the idea of developing coconut oil specifically for beauty use to her husband who worked in the beauty business and they got to work sourcing and developing the purest coconut oil on the planet. They connected with their partners James Brennan and Kiana Cabell, fellow beauty and wellness enthusiasts, and (ta-da!) Kopari was born!

In this episode we talk about Kopari's new launches such as their sunscreen and deodorant as well as their projects, one of which includes giving back to the people of the Philippines where they source their coconuts.
